good_a thing_n god_n never_o bestow_v upon_o the_o wicked_a never_o withhold_v from_o the_o godly_a and_o be_v all_o cast_v up_o in_o one_o sum_n where_o it_o be_v say_v beati_fw-la mundo_fw-la cord_n

there_o not_o a_o necessity_n of_o speak_v many_o thing_n beside_o god_n praise_n yet_o nothing_o must_v be_v speak_v but_o either_o his_o praise_n or_o to_o his_o praise_n or_o else_o we_o break_v
